It had to be that way, but not only Miracle- got free farm, but so did MC, while still being ahead.

Also, i might be way out of the loop here, but anyone building mael on Clinkz needs to go to pubhell.

Nothing changes. Maybe it becomes even more of a stomp because supports can save $$$ on dusts lmao.

GG pls ban alch

How though
It isn't Liquid go to pick hasn't been for a long time
In retrospect it seemed obvious
But they just don't pick it + were saving strats for a long time
Just watch when they will be pressured they'll pull some other hero out of the bag that seems "obvious" and this will happen again

It was also when they stopped caring about dota 1 parity iirc. Props to them for maintaining it this long though.
